The musical by Stephen Schwartz is based upon the Gospel according to St. Matthew. Originally directed by John-Michael Tebelak the first production opened off Broadway in 1971. In this retelling of the original sensation, contemporary references and dazzling new arrangements make Godspell 2012 fresh and exciting.(westliberty.edu)

The director, and Associate Professor of Music, Michael Aulick and I talked about it.

I used my years as a student at WVU in the early 70's to learn about all kinds of things. Religion, psychology, criminology, drama, statistics, economics, geology and more. I took classes in many subjects, and attended lectures and events on all sorts of issues. I improved my writing and research skills and maybe my critical thinking. I majored in communication and minored in journalism because I knew those were the career areas I would probably make my money from one day, but I wanted to know about all kinds of things.

I thought that was what higher education was about. Becoming a well-rounded person. I still think that's what it should be.
